Finger Painting God's World










This is one of those days I want to etch in my brain so that when trials come my way I can use these moments as a constant reminder of how faithful, loving and gracious our God is. We started by finger painting obviously and the joy that brings out is just so incredibly precious! My Evelyn is just one constant glow! Johnathon is getting so talented and mature...the kid after a few minutes noticed his hands were getting dirty..therefore the colors were mixing..so he went inside to wash his hands by himself. Alivia is just a blast! So much personality! Her little nose wrinkle has got to be the cutiest facial expression I have ever seen! Later we played in my son's castle (fort on our playground) and Johnathon bravely fought off the wolfs so that I and his sisters were safe! What a hero he is turning out to be! Evelyn is brave, loyal, compassionate and a beauty. I pray daily that her future husband cherishes the absolute incredible gift he will get with my baby girl. Alivia is so grown up..I have a feeling she will be my first doing everything and always pushing herself to do more! She talks as clear as my other two and is by far more decisive and driven..that in an 18 month old body is fun, frustrating at times and a joy to be blessed with raising. What an incredible adventure we've been given...what a blessing it is to serve to Lord..there is no harder job, nor another one that I would want more than to effect eternity in raising my kids to Love the Lord and Lead others to Him.
